And the other cliche in the video game world is I'm a super-tough marine who can kill thousands of people and save the world/nation/gerbil from total destruction. Bigger guns solve bigger problems. Shoot your way to victory. All done to a jingoistic soundtrack.

These are the two choices in games. Furry or marines. Now we just need a visionary developer to mix them, say, Furry vs Marine and you'll have a game with maximum appeal. Now how does this kickstarter thing work again?
